Chapter 918 Host, come on~

Su Xing and Mr. Mu packed up their things and walked out of the scenic area while chatting.

During the conversation, Su Xing learned that Mr. Mu used to be a primary school principal and has been retired for several years.

Playing the flute is his personal hobby, and he has been playing it for twenty or thirty years.

He particularly likes children who are good at studying and can learn musical instruments quickly, and he feels that he met Su Xing too late.

He also learned that Su Xing was from H Province.

The old man smiled and praised Su Xing, "You Northeasterners are really quite cheerful and generous."

This little girl, when she met a strange old man, was so open about asking him to teach her how to play the flute. He had never met such a child before.

Su Xing smiled and said, "If you have the chance to come to H Province in the future, I will treat you to ice lanterns and iron pot stew."

She was too embarrassed to tell Mr. Mu that she used to be able to communicate with others without dropping words, but in her hometown, she was still considered a social phobic...

"Okay, okay." The old man nodded and smiled, then curiously asked Su Xing: "Xiao Su, how many points did you get in the college entrance examination?"

Su Xing said a little embarrassedly: "733 points."

Mr. Mu widened his eyes and gave Su Xing a thumbs up, "Wow, not ugly, such a high score!"

"It's... okay."

Su Xing blushed a little, and she felt that her modesty seemed a little fake... (??. ??)

After they left the scenic area, Mr. Mu took Su Xing to an old Huaiyang restaurant frequented by locals.

Su Xing insisted on treating everyone, and Mr. Mu didn't argue with her.

The old man recommended several dishes that he thought were delicious, and Su Xing added several signature dishes.

The old man said, "We ordered a little too much food, we can't finish it all."

He felt that he ordered too much and it would be a waste if he couldn't finish it.

Su Xing smiled obediently but with a hint of shyness, "I can finish it. I have a big appetite."

She treated everyone but didn't want to go hungry.

Mr. Mu thought Su Xing wanted to try more local dishes, so he stopped persuading him.

As a result, after the two started eating, the old man was soon surprised by Su Xing's good appetite!

He couldn't help but say, "You northern girls all have good appetites!"

Su Xing paused for a moment and quickly defended northern girls, "Most northern girls can't eat as much as I can. In fact, many boys can't eat as much as I can either."

She paused for a moment, then made up for herself, "I practice martial arts, so my appetite is bigger than that of ordinary people..."

Mr. Mu nodded and said, "Oh, so that's how it is."

The two of them were eating and chatting.

Su Xing asked Mr. Mu a lot of questions about flute playing. The old man answered them seriously and told Su Xing some interesting stories about when he was young and just started learning to play the flute.

They both enjoyed the dinner very much and had a very pleasant conversation.

The old man also uses WeChat, and the two became friends.

After dinner, Su Xing paid the bill.

Mr. Mu knew that Su Xing would leave Guangling tomorrow, and he actually felt a little reluctant to part with this student whom he had just taught for a day.

"Go back and practice playing the flute well. If you have any questions, contact me and ask me."

Su Xing said seriously: "Okay, Mr. Mu, I will continue to study hard when I return."

Mr. Mu lives nearby and he can get home in just a few minutes' walk.

The two waved goodbye to each other.

After Su Xingmu saw Mr. Mu walking away, she hailed a taxi and prepared to return to the hotel.

She was in the car, and called out to the system in her mind, "System?"

【I am here. 】

Su Xing asked: "I learned to play the flute from Teacher Mu today, and I can now play the complete song "Where in Life Will We Meet Again". Does this count as 1% of the task completed?"

The system was silent for two seconds, and then poured a basin of cold water on Su Xing.

[Not counted. The host only played that song by imitating others. He has not yet fully mastered the traditional art of playing the flute. It cannot be counted in the task progress.]

Su Xing, "...Okay."

She wasn't actually very surprised, but she was still a little depressed.

[Host, please continue to study hard, come on~]

Su Xing did not respond to the system again.

She didn't want to deal with it for now.

After arriving at the hotel, Su Xing quickly took a shower to cool down.

It is really hot in Guangling in July.

She had just finished taking a shower and was applying skin care products when she heard two electronic system sounds in her head.

[Congratulations to the host for completing the hidden task: Introduce the history of woodblock printing and the process of woodblock printing to the majority of netizens. Now a certain number of people have learned about woodblock printing. Reward: 2 days of health points, hours of deep sleep buff for months.]

[Congratulations to the host: The long-term task of "Promoting Chinese Traditional Culture" has been updated, and the number of people affected by the task has increased by another 20, and the reward of life value is days. ]

When Su Xing heard that she had gained nearly another month of life, she immediately became happy again.

This long-term task is actually updated from time to time. Sometimes, a certain traditional culture affects a large number of people, and the system will specifically mark it out, such as opera culture and the previous tea culture popular science.

What is not marked are her other updates about traditional culture on Weibo. The traffic is continuously increasing, and when the total impact of those updates exceeds a certain number of people, they will be updated.

Su Xing picked up his phone, searched for some flute teaching videos, and started watching them.

However, it is not convenient to practice the flute in the hotel as it will affect other guests, so she is just watching the video and does not take out the flute.

After watching a flute teaching video for a while, she turned on her computer and started working.

She was busy until two o'clock in the morning, then she turned off the computer and went to bed.

The morning of the 9nd.

At around nine o'clock, Su Xing checked out and prepared to leave Guangling.

There are not many trains from Guangling to Luoyang, and there is only one high-speed train, which leaves at 10:57 am and arrives at Luoyang Longmen Station at 3:03 pm.

She thought the high-speed rail ride was quite convenient, taking more than four hours.

If she takes a plane, and there is no direct flight, she will have to transfer.

Su Xing had a full meal in the hotel in the morning, but when she got to the station, she had lunch in advance.

Although there are box lunches for sale on the high-speed rail, she doesn't want to show off one box lunch after another in the carriage.

After getting in the car, Su Xing sent a message to his senior sister Li Xinhe.

Can I not wake up? "Sister, I'm on the bus. I'll be in Luoyang at 3pm. (Expression: happy)"

Li Xinhe: "Senior Brother Lu and I will pick you up later."

Li Xinhe: "My dad has already ordered a roasted whole lamb and is waiting for you to come."

Can I not wake up? "Master is so kind! (Expression: drooling)"

Li Xinhe: "Is your master the best?"

Is it okay not to wake up: "Senior sister is fine, senior brothers are fine too! Hehe~"

Li Xinhe couldn't help but laugh when he saw the little junior sister's nonsense message.
